90 points seems to be the common consensus and I agree with that ... !
Wouldn’t surprise me City exceeding that again though ..

 

[hateutd]

definitely just a few more than Chelsea,scousers and rags.....

19) 2010/11 - Man Utd - 80
20) 2011/12 - Man City - 89
21) 2012/13 - Man Utd - 89
22) 2013/14 - Man City - 86
23) 2014/15 - Chelsea - 87
24) 2015/16 - Leicester - 81
25) 2016/17 - Chelsea - 93
26) 2017/18 - Man City - 100

26 years.
Need to beat 13 to be above 50% to win, notwithstanding 22 teams in years 1-3.
Say 87 - beats 11, ties 2
Say 88 - beats 13, ties 0

City are well above most other sides, with, I think, Liverpool best placed to challenge. MU/Arsenal/Chelsea/Spurs are about equal.

In an "average" year, it looks, historically as-if 88 or so will suffice - but Pool are strong (still need a keeper?). So 89-90?

So, at a guess, I'll say 90 points will suffice to win the league.

89 again.

If we get 93 we probably win it.
I would love a league title, An FA Cup and a League Cup giving us 6 of each - The number of the beast...
(yeah I know the actual number is 616 so how about the League the Champions League and the FA Cup instead.)

 

[Nascent Blues]

I can't see us dropping that many points against teams outside of the usual top six as we are simply too good, both from a player and style point of view; I don't think that can be said for the other top 5 sides. For me, if we finish on top of the top six mini-league we'll lift the trophy again.

 

[cookster]

Reckon the top 6 will all take points off each other and we'll win comfortably with 90ish points.

94

4 deafeats and 4 draws

Chelsea will finish second scousers/arse/rags fight for 3rd/4th

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

Double centurions would be nice

Impossible to get 200 points ;-)
